| If you know how to study a glass of wine, it can tell you about its history. Studying a wine involves using several senses, not just taste. First, pour the wine into a glass and look at it. Color can tell a lot about the kind of grapes, where the wine is from and its age. Look at the clarity, thickness and color of the wine. A white wine might be almost colorless, or it could have a deep golden color．White wines go darker with age. White wine made from grapes grown in a cool climate is often paler, with a higher amount of acid (酸). A white wine from grapes grown in a warmer climate is often yellower, with less acid, though there are exceptions to this rule. The color of red wine can be purplish red to brick red. Red wines often become paler with age. Red wines grown in warmer climates often have deeper color than those grown in cooler climates. Next, turn the glass so that the wine moves around inside. This brings air into the wine, so that it releases its smell. Smell the wine deeply. A wine's smell is actually more telling than its taste. To use a wine term, what can you learn about the wine from its "nose"? Is the wine fruity? Does it smell like oak? Do you smell grass or maybe honey? Maybe the smell is like butter or a mineral. It may be complex or intense. Now it is time to taste the wine. Move it around in your mouth. You may recognize some tastes because you identify them while smelling the wine. You can also consider the wine's sweetness and its sharpness, or acidity. You may note the taste of tannin. Tannins are chemicals that are found in the skin and seeds of grapes. They are also found in tea. Tannins taste bitter and seem to coat your mouth. To make a good wine requires a balance between sugar, acidity, tannin and alcohol. Many wine experts can identify the kind of wine without ever seeing the label on the bottle. This is because they know the qualities of the look, smell and taste of a wine. |
| 1. According to the passage, a red wine with a lighter color might be the wine _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. that has a lower amount of acid B. that is grown in cooler climates C. that is not good wine D. that is grown in warmer climates |
| 2. By looking at the color of the wine, experts _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. can know whether the wine tastes good or not B. can know whether the wine is made from grapes C. can know whether the wine has a long or short history D. can know whether the wine has a good color |
| 3. Paragraph 5 suggests the followings except that _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. A wine can have different kinds of smells B. A wine's smell can't give any meaningful information about the wine C. You can't smell the wine properly if you don't turn the glass D. A wine might not smell like wine |
| 4. In tasting wine, one needs to pay attention to _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. how sweet it tastes B. how sharp it tastes C. how bitter it tastes D. all of the above |
| 5. How many senses are involved in studying a glass of wine according to the passage? |

| Rescue (救援) workers at the San Jose gold and copper mine in northern Chile had reason to sing this week. A small hole drilled into the earth became a passage to freedom for thirty-three trapped miners. They spent sixty-nine days underground. "Never have people been trapped for so long so deeply," says a doctor at NASA, the American space agency, which helped in the rescue. But the chief medical officer for the miners said most are in good enough health to leave the hospital within a day or so. The first three were released from the hospital Thursday night. For much of the day the miners relaxed with Chilean President Sebastian Pinera. The thirty-two Chileans and one Bolivian still wore special sunglasses to protect their eyes. A partial mine collapse (坍塌) on 5th of August trapped them more than half a kilometer underground. They had to stretch a two-day food supply. For two weeks no one knew if they were alive or dead. Later, they received supplies (供给) and a video link lowered through drill holes. That link was how Ariel Ticona watched his wife give birth to their daughter. The miners have apparently agreed to share the money they earn from selling their story. They have already received gifts of money and travel offers. Edison Pena has been invited to the New York City Marathon and to Graceland, the home of Elvis Presley in Memphis, Tennessee. Mr.Pena described how he ran in the mine tunnels to ease the stress. And he led the miners in singing Elvis songs. The first miner rescued on Wednesday was Florencio Avalos. The second was Mario Sepulveda, who talked about how the experience tested his faith. He said:"I was with God and I was with the devil, they fought me, but God won. He took me by my best hand, the hand of God." The last miner up was Luis Urzua. He was the shift leader when his crew became trapped. Rescuers used a metal cage to pull the miners to safety in less than twenty-four hours-faster than expected. The rescue capsule was a half-meter wide and known as the Phoenix. |
| 1. How many miners had been rescued according to the report? |
|
[ ] |
| A. Three B. Sixty-nine C. Thirty-three D. Thirty-two |
| 2. According to the passage, when the miners were trapped, some of them did the followings except _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. sharing money B. Running to ease stress C. Watching a video showing his wife giving birth D. Singing songs |
| 3. Edison Pena was invited to Graceland probably because _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. he ran in the mine tunnel B. he prayed to God C. he led the miners in singing Elvis songs D. he was the shift leader |
| 4. From the passage, we can infer the followings except that _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. Rescue workers were happy about their rescue work B. People felt surprised to find the miners safe and sound C. People might have been quite worried about the miners' safety D. The trapped miners drilled a small hole themselves to escape |
| 5. What would be the best title for the report? |
|
[ ] |
| A. A mining accident B. Miners saved, safe and sound C. A difficult rescue D. Miners trapped deep underground |

| Surveys of American teenagers find that about half of them do not get enough sleep on school nights. They get an average of 60 to 90 minutes less than experts say they need. One reason for this lack of sleep is biology. Experts say teens are biologically programmed to go to sleep later and wake up later than other age groups. Yet many schools start classes as early as seven in the morning. As a result, many students go to class feeling like sixteen-year-old Danny. He plays two sports, lacrosse and football. He is an active teen-except in the morning. DANNY:"Getting up in the morning is pretty terrible. I'm just very out of it and tired. And then going to school I'm out of it, and through first and second period I can barely stay awake. "Michael Breus is a clinical psychologist with a specialty in sleep problems. Teens, he says, now commonly sleep for only 6.5 hours to 7 hours. He says sleepy teens can experience a form of depression (压抑) that could have big effects on their general well-being. It can affect not just their ability in the classroom but also on the sports field and on the road. So what can schools do about sleepy students? The psychologist says one thing they can do is start classes later in the morning. Eric Peterson is the head of St. George's School in the northeastern state of Rhode Island. He wanted to see if a thirty-minute delay would make a difference. It did. He says visits to the health center by tired students decreased by half. Late arrivals to first period fell by a third. And students reported that they were less sleepy during the day. Eric Peterson knows that changing start times is easier at a small, private boarding school like his. But he is hopeful that other schools will find a way. Patricia Moss, an assistant dean at St. George's School, says students were not the only ones reporting better results. PATRICIA MOSS:"I can say that generally all the teachers noticed immediately that kids were happier to be there at eight-thirty than they were at eight." |
| 1. According to experts like Michael Breus, how many hours of sleep should teens get every day? |
|
[ ] |
| A. 6.5 hours to 7 hours B. at least 7.5 hours C. More than 9 hours D. Less than 7 hours |
| 2. According to some experts, why do teens wake up later than adults? |
| A. Because they are lazier. B. Because they need more sleep. C. Because they are biologically programmed to sleep late and wake up late. D. Because they play sports. |
| 3. The article mentions the story of sixteen-year-old Danny to _____. |
| A. show how he hates getting up in the morning. B. show how teens can be affected by a lack of sleep. C. show how he turns from an active boy to a tired school child. D. show how teens hate school. |
| 4. What does Eric Peterson do about the problem of sleepy students? |
| A. He visits the health center. B. He punishes late students. C. He punishes sleepy students. D. He starts his school time 30 minutes later. |
| 5. Which of the followings is not true according to the article? |
| A. Later school time leads to fewer late arrivals. B. Er ic Peterson’s experiment h as answered his question. C. The writer of this article seems to support later school time. D. Teachers of St. George’s School don’t seem to support later school time. |

| A child's birthday party should be one of the most fun events of the year, for the birthday child, the guests and even for the hosts. The three keys to a successful child's birthday party is planning, more planning, and even more planning. Kid's birthday party games are important ingredients of every party and must be thought out and arranged in advance. Luckily, there is no shortage of fun and interesting games to keep kids busy and happy, so it is not difficult to come up with more than enough ideas. It is important to remember that children have a far shorter attention span (长度) than adults. For that reason, the host should not expect that one or two activities will keep the guests entertained for a long period of time. Plan a lot of short, fun games that will satisfy their needs. Make sure that the games are age appropriate:"duck duck goose" will keep little ones happy for a while, but certainly will not work for pre-teens. "Scavenger or treasure hunts" are great kid's birthday party games for any age-just make sure that it's neither too difficult nor too simple． Be sure to have enough ideas in mind so that it is possible to "throw away" an activity that is not going well. Kid's birthday party games should be simple and fun. If a game is started and no one seems to be having any fun, simply end that activity and start another. Kids like changes and will not mind a bit. If the party is held indoors, it is a good idea to clear a room of breakables and make that room the game headquarters. For outdoor parties, make sure that the play area is free from potential dangers and that the games do not involve tree climbing or other activities that are likely to cause injury. Finally, remember to have prizes and treats on hand to reward the players. Prizes do not need to be large or expensive. Kid's birthday party games are about teamwork, not rewards. Be sure to have prizes not only for the winners of the games, but for every child in attendance, so that each child goes home with some fun memento of the party and the time spent with friends. |

|
[ ] |
| A. Planning B. Games C. Food and drinks D. Prizes |

|
[ ] |
| A. the party will be held for a long time B. there will be many guests C. children can't focus on one thing for too long D. adults will enjoy the games, too |
| 3. When children seem to get bored with a game, parents should _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. encourage them to carry on B. show them how to enjoy it C. make the game more difficult D. start another game |
| 4. What does the underlined word "memento" in the last paragraph most probably mean? |
|
[ ] |
| A. moment B. memory C. prizes D. games |
| 5. We can infer from the passage that _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. If not rightly planned, a child's birthday party can be boring to children B. Children will enjoy a birthday party anyway C. Children who like playing "Scavenger hunt" will also enjoy "Duck duck goose" D. It would be better to play indoors than outdoors, because outdoor parties can be dangerous |
